About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Having meaningful and satisfying emotional bonds with people. When you come to the end, its not gonna be the pieces of paper that matter, but these right?

ABOUT ME

I'm a cynical, but easy going video game, movie and comic nerd. I also listen to a LOT of music, most of it being older than a decade. I don't like power and authority or lies. I am here to enjoy meeting people that are different from the clones I observe around me everyday.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Really very hard to explain here :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I always love to talk about philosophy with regards to how people attach meaning to things and how different cultures most of the time has huge similarities although politics and power struggles create division and hate. Also, as a political science major, I'm very interested about how politics and geopolitical/class struggles are reflected in popular culture and plan to study this in the future.
